[Bug-ddrescue] bug/design issue: GNU ddrescue results do not specify if

To whom it may concern,

This is more of a design than bug issue, I think. The displayed results are comprehensive. However, with regards to errors, it doesn't specify if it's in terms of sectors, blocks, or some other denomination. Ex: GNU ddrescue images a drive and reports 9 errors and an errsize of 60 GB.. What does that mean? Is it 9 bad blocks accumulating 60 GB of data?

Thank you.
